# CheckIncludeFileCXX
# -------------------
#
-# Check if the include file exists.
+# Provides a macro to check if a header file can be included in ``CXX``.
#
-# ::
+# .. command:: CHECK_INCLUDE_FILE_CXX
#
-# CHECK_INCLUDE_FILE_CXX(INCLUDE VARIABLE)
+# ::
#
+# CHECK_INCLUDE_FILE_CXX(<include> <variable> [<flags>])
#
-#
-# ::
-#
-# INCLUDE - name of include file
-# VARIABLE - variable to return result
-# Will be created as an internal cache variable.
-#
-#
-#
-# An optional third argument is the CFlags to add to the compile line or
-# you can use CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS.
+# Check if the given ``<include>`` file may be included in a ``CXX``
+# source file and store the result in an internal cache entry named
+# ``<variable>``. The optional third argument may be used to add
+# compilation flags to the check (or use ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS`` below).
#
# The following variables may be set before calling this macro to modify
# the way the check is run:
#
-# ::
+# ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS``
+# string of compile command line flags
+# ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS``
+# list of macros to define (-DFOO=bar)
+# ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES``
+# list of include directories
+# ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET``
+# execute quietly without messages
#
-# CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS = string of compile command line flags
-# CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS = list of macros to define (-DFOO=bar)
-# CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES = list of include directories
-# CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET = execute quietly without messages
+# See modules :module:`CheckIncludeFile` and :module:`CheckIncludeFiles`
+# to check for one or more ``C`` headers.
